Denial of Application for Recordation of Trade Name: ``WINFING''
ACTION: Denial of Application for Recordation of Trade Name, DOT.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: By notice published in the Federal Register dated June 27,
1997, application was filed pursuant to section 133.12, Customs
Regulations (19 CFR 133.12), for the recordation under section 42 of
the Act of July 5, 1946, as amended (15 U.S.C. 1124), of the trade name
``WINFING,'' used by PrintScan International, Inc., a corporation
organized under the laws of the State of New Jersey, located at 1432
Drum Hill Road, Martinsville, New Jersey 08836.
The application states that the alleged trade name is used in
connection with a demonstration and evaluation software. Its main
purpose is to give an insight into the internal working mechanism of
the PrintScan core library and to demonstrate the performance of the
fingerprint analysis procedure.
Before final action was taken on the application, consideration was
given to any relevant data, views, or arguments submitted in writing by
any person in opposition to the recordation of this alleged trade name.
No comments were received relative to this application.
Customs has completed its review of this matter and has determined
that the word ``Winfing'' is not used as a trade name, but rather, in a
trademark sense with demonstration and evaluation software.
Accordingly, the application is denied.
